 * Keep. We've been here before - it isn't a bootleg. And it has been the subject of significant coverage.--Michig (talk) 06:03, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep – Indeed. Not a bootleg. Has been the subject of significant coverage in Allmusic. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 06:08, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Question How is this not a bootleg? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:32, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Bootlegs are illegal releases. This isn't.--Michig (talk) 06:48, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * No Not all bootlegs are illegal, not all illegal albums are bootlegs, and nothing in this article says that the album is legal--if anything, its status as an "unauthorized" recording would suggest the opposite. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:30, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * All genuine bootlegs are illegal. Record labels and bands have capitalized on their popularity by releasing 'official bootlegs', but these aren't genuinely bootlegs. As for this album being 'unauthorized' it depends by whom. Since several legit labels have released it it clearly isn't violating any law - perhaps it's just not authorized by the artists, but if they don't own the copyright then that doesn't make it a bootleg any more than thousands of other non-bootleg collections.--Michig (talk) 17:48, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Again, not true If I go to a concert and record it, that is a bootleg. That might be legal or illegal. Bootlegs are not universally "illegal albums." That having been said, you still haven't shown me how this isn't a bootleg. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 18:15, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Bootleg albums are illegal, or they wouldn't be bootlegs. Legally-released albums are not bootlegs even if the original recordings was a bootleg recording. You want it deleted - you prove that its a bootleg, not that it makes any difference.--Michig (talk) 19:14, 16 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep, oh please keep Alice, notable artist=notable album!. --Eduardofoxx13 (talk) 19:21, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
